Calling all contractors, investors, and buyers ready to roll up their sleeves! This charming country property features 7.24 acres, a spring-fed pond, and the opportunity to bring a special property back to life! A prior appraisal from approximately two years ago reflected a value of $400,000. Enjoy acreage without endless mowing! The home overlooks an approximately 1.7-acre pond, with 4+ acres beyond the water accessible through an approximately 40-foot-wide opening from the road. Only about half an acre of lawn needs mowing! Individual land and pond measurements are estimates based on GIS tools. Previously enjoyed for fishing, kayaking, and swimming, the pond offers the potential for a beautiful outdoor retreat. A 35' x 10' covered patio overlooks the water, surrounded by mature trees and wildlife. Pond, landscape, and grounds maintenance has been deferred. Inside, discover mid-century modern charm with an updated glow! This property needs work, and we're upfront about it. A March 2026 inspection report and contractor estimates are available. Known needs include roof and electrical panel replacement, furnace concerns, and crawl space work involving a sump crock, pump, drainage, encapsulation, and waterproofing. Estimates for these items total approximately $55,000; additional work may be needed. Previously operated as a successful Airbnb! Historical net operating income (NOI) information is available upon request. Buyer to verify short-term rental rules and income potential. The well was installed in September 2009 and the septic system redone in 2011; both were reported to be functioning properly at the March 2026 inspection.
